Re: Fuel Pump Replacement
Oh yeah, one thing I did that I think is worth mentioning is I used compressed air to blow all the dirt and debris out from around the old pump before unsealing its lockring. There was lots of dirt caked around it and I didn't want it all falling into the tank when I removed the old pump, so I blasted it away with compressed air.
I completely removed the tank and stuffed rags in the filler holes before blowing the dirt away. Then I un-twisted the lock ring and blew more dirt away before unseating the old pump.
